[UN PLOMBIER NIGHTMARE #blm]

Easiest 10 in dynamite history. For f***'s sakes they had that video game match and Shad Khan was out there checking on his son who just got destroyed. I felt like I was watching an episode of NXT + Dynamite tonight which is all I could ask for. Hell f***ing yeah.

[Chiral]

Tony Khan takes a mean Tony Khan Driver. 10/10.

THIS IS THE BIG ANGLE I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR RAAGHHH

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

10, great matches, fun segments.

I wish Jericho would go away forever and never communicate with the public again, but I won't hold it against anyone.

[Johnny Flamingo]

10/10

Last segment was everything I love about pro wrestling.

Great show.

[This Player Hating Mothman]

Nowhere near as much oreo burger this week as I hoped for/10

[Cyno]

9/10 for the actual show. Jericho's segment was really the only thing I didn't like.

1/10 for TBS and their shitty audio.

[Zone Was Wrong]

10/10

I can overlook the audio issues since it's not AEW's fault. Great matches all around, shame it looked like Hobbs might have gotten hurt. That ending though. What a way to send a message and shake things up.

[froggyfrog]

Chuck Taylor said shit on TV / 10

[FinalGwen]

I feel like a lot happened tonight and there was plenty to love, but everything felt a bit off and disconnected, and not just because of the audio issues (spared from that on Fite). Felt like there wasn't much of a throughline to the night if you're not invested in the Don Callis family.

That said, lots of positives, so I'd still score it highly:
- Mina was great, instantly proving to anyone unfamiliar how good she is, gorgeous and precise offence combined with constant character work.
- Two women's feuds with a ton of story and momentum. Thought the Willow segment was excellent and put more meat on the bone of Willow's motivation to beat Mone as much as Mone's got her quest to get 'revenge' for her injury. And we still don't know who either woman's attacker was.
- The Casino Gauntlet was a messy clusterf*** of a match and I mean that as a sincere compliment. Even if I'd have preferred a different winner, that was a blast.
- Chuck Taylor fini-shits the story.
- Think that was the perfect use of Tony, didn't have to say a word or cut a promo, just delivers the story through Perry and the Bucks' actions. Really liked the EVP Trigger fakeout leading into a much bigger move that's named for him.

And a few negatives:
- Did that Jericho/Big Bill segment need to be so long? And did we really have to sacrifice Big Bill to the Jericho Suck Pit? (Not calling it the Vortex, can trademark this one if you want Chris.)
- Again, if you're not invested in the dynamics of the Callis Family then there's not a lot to latch onto. If TK had decided on putting such a focus on Kyle Fletcher after getting dropped on his head it'd make more sense to me.
- Doing the Parking Lot Fight so quick rather than building it up seems weird.

[Some Guy]

Eh it was about a 4 for me. Main event angle was fine but not really sure I love it. Didn't really like the Gauntlet at all (it felt like a meandering GCW scramble match that I'm completely fed up on) and Fletcher/Swerve did nothing for me as a certified do not care about him at all person on Fletcher. Jericho promo stuff stunk again. Was disappointed in the Hobbs injury as I was really looking forward to him/Mox and clearly it had to get cut short. Sound issues were really terrible tonight, as mentioned.

Mina/Anna Jay was probably the match of the night though so that was fun. Willow had another home run promo and it dragged Mercedes up in the process, so liked that segment plenty. Still wish Hayter was back already but this is about the best you can do until then.

["Cane Dewey" Johnson]

Glad to hear that Swerve is champion, but I don't feel like dipping back into Dynamite just yet. So seven weeks of not watching and counting.

[john84]

It was a good show despite the audio stuff being terrible tonight. Matches were good but I would've given the show a 6 this week, not because it was BAD or anything just that it was a 6 for me.

But, I went with a 7 because of the TK segment made me LMAO.  So, yeah, 7 out of 10.

[schizo]

8

Fun show with a hilarious ending

[neilc]

3. The audio was annoying. The TBS champ gets a celebration, yet the world champ, your first Black male champion, gets....a cold match with Kyle Fletcher. Jericho was not good in his latest attempt to stay relevant. I liked the Willow segment, but she's gotta look at who she's talking to and not at the camera. The women's match was good, and Shibata made me laugh. But the end with TK taking a 'bump' was just ridiculous. Nobody comes out to help until the Bucks, etc. leave? The show had been on an upswing recently, but since the stupid videotape thing, it's been dragged down again.

The locker room for Daily's Place is a very long way from the arena, that's why it took that long for help to arrive. This has been a constant for Daily's Place shows from the very beginning

And Swerve getting a match to show he's a fighting champion doesn't exactly hurt him at all? He went out, showed out, and won, how is that worse then a segment??

[4real]

9. Almost perfect really. Main event segment & Cluster match worth a 10 alone. All segments hit for me most of the other matches were just ok.

[mikehhh1]

the problem is with these polls is people vote 10 for shows like this which was at most a 7.

ruins the poll cos they want aew to get the high rating

Or hear me out... they enjoyed the show

Plenty of people voiced otherwise here or expressed numbers that weren't a 10

People are allowed to vote on the polls however they felt they enjoyed the show and for some people that can be a 10, and for other people it's a 7, or lower, or higher

These polls can get trolled, and have before, but there really isn't an issue with people liking this show, it's fair if you liked it less but everyone's different.

[KME]

Notice he doesn't have any issue with the amount of people voting 2. Not a single post talking about AEW outside of moaning about this poll and talking about TV ratings, could have predicted that without even clicking on his post history.

It's got people going with a 10 because it had a huge ending segment and a gauntlet match that was f***ing awesome with a big surprise while everything else was solid to very good and everything felt like it progressed a story. If it was just a targeted effort to go 10 to make AEW look better (as if that would work) then people would do it every week for Dynamite, the same way the same tiresome c***s come in and vote low every week. It happens more regularly with Rampage and Collision with mostly just the regulars watching but you don't see it with Dynamite from what I've ever noticed.

I'd go 8, it's not a 10 by my personal taste as it was light on the RASSLIN but it was a tremendous way to come off PPV, they reset in the best way and set up their new big angle for the summer. Plus the Ospreay stuff just made me mark out. And Chuck finally got to say shit on TV. No amount of audio issues could ruin those things for me.
